Introduction
Electronic commerce, in its broadest sense, is a way of doing business and communicating across public and private
networks. An important requirement of electronic commerce is the ability to identify the originator and protect the
confidentiality of electronic exchanges. This is commonly achieved by using cryptographic mechanisms which are
supported by a Trust Service Provider (TSP) issuing certificates, commonly called a Certification Authority (CA).
For participants of electronic commerce to have confidence in the security of these cryptographic mechanisms they
need to have confidence that the TSP has properly established procedures and protective measure in order to minimize
the operational and financial threats and risks associated with public key cryptographic systems.
The present document is aiming to meet the general requirements of the international community to provide trust and
confidence in electronic transactions including, amongst others, applicable requirements from Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.14] and those from CA/Browser Forum, BRG [5].
Bodies wishing to establish policy requirements for TSPs issuing certificates in a regulatory context other than the EU
can base their requirements on those specified in the present document and specify any additional requirements in a
manner similar to ETSI EN 319 411-2 [i.5], which builds on the present document requirements so as to benefit from
the use of generally accepted global best practices.

1 Scope
The present document specifies generally applicable policy and security requirements for Trust Service Providers
(TSPs) issuing public key certificates, including trusted web site certificates.
The policy and security requirements are defined in terms of requirements for the issuance, maintenance and life-cycle
management of certificates. These policy and security requirements support several reference certificate policies,
defined in clauses 4 and 5.
A framework for the definition of policy requirements for TSPs issuing certificates in a specific context where
particular requirements apply is defined in clause 7.
The present document covers requirements for CA hierarchies, however this is limited to supporting the policies as
specified in the present document. It does not include requirements for root CAs and intermediate CAs for other
purposes.
The present document is applicable to:
• the general requirements of certification in support of cryptographic mechanisms, including digital signatures
for electronic signatures and seals;
• the general requirements of certification authorities issuing TLS/SSL certificates;
• the general requirements of the use of cryptography for authentication and encryption.
The present document does not specify how the requirements identified can be assessed by an independent party,
including requirements for information to be made available to such independent assessors, or requirements on such
assessors.
NOTE: See ETSI EN 319 403 [i.2] for guidance on assessment of TSP's processes and services. The present
document references ETSI EN 319 401 [8] for general policy requirements common to all classes of
TSP's services.
The present document includes provisions consistent with the requirements from the CA/Browser Forum in EVCG [4]
and BRG [5].

Introduction
Electronic commerce, in its broadest sense, is a way of doing business and communicating across public and private
networks. An important requirement of electronic commerce is the ability to identify the originator and protect the
confidentiality of electronic exchanges. This is commonly achieved by using cryptographic mechanisms which are
supported by a Trust Service Provider (TSP) issuing certificates, commonly called a Certification Authority (CA).
For participants of electronic commerce to have confidence in the security of these cryptographic mechanisms they
need to have confidence that the TSP has properly established procedures and protective measure in order to minimize
the operational and financial threats and risks associated with public key cryptographic systems.
The present document is aiming to meet the general requirements of the international community to provide trust and
confidence in electronic transactions including, amongst others, applicable requirements from Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.14] and those from CA/Browser Forum, BRG [5].
Bodies wishing to establish policy requirements for TSPs issuing certificates in a regulatory context other than the EU
can base their requirements on those specified in the present document and specify any additional requirements in a
manner similar to ETSI EN 319 411-2 [i.5], which builds on the present document requirements so as to benefit from
the use of generally accepted global best practices.

1 Scope
The present document specifies generally applicable policy and security requirements for Trust Service Providers
(TSPs) issuing public key certificates, including trusted web site certificates.
The policy and security requirements are defined in terms of requirements for the issuance, maintenance and life-cycle
management of certificates. These policy and security requirements support several reference certificate policies,
defined in clauses 4 and 5.
A framework for the definition of policy requirements for TSPs issuing certificates in a specific context where
particular requirements apply is defined in clause 7.
The present document covers requirements for CA hierarchies, however this is limited to supporting the policies as
specified in the present document. It does not include requirements for root CAs and intermediate CAs for other
purposes.
The present document is applicable to:
• the general requirements of certification in support of cryptographic mechanisms, including digital signatures
for electronic signatures and seals;
• the general requirements of certification authorities issuing TLS/SSL certificates;
• the general requirements of the use of cryptography for authentication and encryption.
The present document does not specify how the requirements identified can be assessed by an independent party,
including requirements for information to be made available to such independent assessors, or requirements on such
assessors.
NOTE: See ETSI EN 319 403 [i.2] for guidance on assessment of TSP's processes and services. The present
document references ETSI EN 319 401 [8] for general policy requirements common to all classes of
TSP's services.
The present document includes provisions consistent with the requirements from the CA/Browser Forum in EVCG [4]
and BRG [5].

Introduction
Electronic commerce, in its broadest sense, is a way of doing business and communicating across public and private
networks. An important requirement of electronic commerce is the ability to identify the originator and protect the
confidentiality of electronic exchanges. This is commonly achieved by using cryptographic mechanisms which are
supported by a Trust Service Provider (TSP) issuing certificates, commonly called a Certification Authority (CA).
For participants of electronic commerce to have confidence in the security of these cryptographic mechanisms they
need to have confidence that the TSP has properly established procedures and protective measure in order to minimize
the operational and financial threats and risks associated with public key cryptographic systems.
The present document is aiming to meet the general requirements of the international community to provide trust and
confidence in electronic transactions including, amongst others, applicable requirements from Regulation (EU)
No 910/2014 [i.14] and those from CA/Browser Forum, BRG [5].
Bodies wishing to establish policy requirements for TSPs issuing certificates in a regulatory context other than the EU
can base their requirements on those specified in the present document and specify any additional requirements in a
manner similar to ETSI EN 319 411-2 [i.5], which builds on the present document requirements so as to benefit from
the use of generally accepted global best practices.

1 Scope
The present document specifies generally applicable policy and security requirements for Trust Service Providers
(TSPs) issuing public key certificates, including trusted web site certificates.
The policy and security requirements are defined in terms of requirements for the issuance, maintenance and life-cycle
management of certificates. These policy and security requirements support several reference certificate policies,
defined in clauses 4 and 5.
A framework for the definition of policy requirements for TSPs issuing certificates in a specific context where
particular requirements apply is defined in clause 7.
The present document covers requirements for CA hierarchies, however this is limited to supporting the policies as
specified in the present document. It does not include requirements for root CAs and intermediate CAs for other
purposes.
The present document is applicable to:
• the general requirements of certification in support of cryptographic mechanisms, including digital signatures
for electronic signatures and seals;
• the general requirements of certification authorities issuing TLS/SSL certificates;
• the general requirements of the use of cryptography for authentication and encryption.
The present document does not specify how the requirements identified can be assessed by an independent party,
including requirements for information to be made available to such independent assessors, or requirements on such
assessors.
NOTE: See ETSI EN 319 403 [i.2] for guidance on assessment of TSP's processes and services. The present
document references ETSI EN 319 401 [8] for general policy requirements common to all classes of
TSP's services.
The present document includes provisions consistent with the requirements from the CA/Browser Forum in EVCG [4]
and BRG [5].
